That sucks that no more elite 2 packs are planned. probably shouldn't have kicked it off w/ a Rock figure w/ the wrong torso and a Faarooq with the wrong skin color It should of been the Ultimate Maniacs or the Outsiders Hall anf Nash with NOD Farrooq being put somewhere else in the line. Would of freed up a DM spot too

probably shouldn't have kicked it off w/ a Rock figure w/ the wrong torso and a Faarooq with the wrong skin color going off my own post, look at the other choices. Harlem Heat....Hart Foundation...Nasty Boys...Ultimate Maniacs. All recent tag team elites that would've been much better choices than a NOD Rock & Faarooq (with incorrect skin/paint color and torso choices) as an elite 2 pack. Ultimate Maniacs would have been a great choice to kick the line off. You get two big, well-known singles stars in one set. Fans would be down and casuals know who both guys are. Win...win!

I love the interviews and the teases as to what will come. Way to go Bill! I loved the passion of the gentleman (name escapes me from Jakks) who had such a passion and obsession to get not just WWF/WWE figures but WCW - NWA and figures from all era's and organizations. I think Bill has that same passion and the WWE encyclopedia that includes everybody gives us hope that more unique elites will be made. More of the greats from all time will be produced.
What a coo to get:
Magnum TA - Macho Man - Ricky Steamboat - Harlem Heat etc ...
Will they be able to redo Jimmy Superfly Snuka in the more classic pose?
More of the classic 80's - 90's stuff?
More Hall of famers like Bob Backlund, Jesse Ventura - Superstar Graham - Putski - Stan Hansen - Haley Race
Classics - DIck The Bruiser - Killer Khan - Gorgeous George - Crusher Blackwell - King Kong Brusier Brody!?? Ole Anderson (needs to stop bashing everybody - everybody needs a love fest and make his figure)
The fight to get Goldberg, Steiners, Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy?
Mattel's Elite scale size - scans, molds and articulation is by far the best and if we keep making them my massive display of jakks will be boxed and put into a closet and only Mattel Elites will be on display. Keep diversifying this line please with older legends from everywhere and new ones. Thank you

That was Jeremy at Jakks and yeah he was really into the figures. Killer Khan is a cool name that rarely gets mentioned, it would be an amazing figure!

I thought it was a decent QnA, glad to see Bill enjoys the figures he makes. I hope that Asuka's as good as the render, it's gotta be tough to execute all those colors and patterns without a mistake. Also, 100 figures at a time? Damn, no wonder some tiny details slip. I agree. From the rend it looks like she's top heavy. Which looks like she can come with a new torso for a female.

Nakamura looks to be a new, unique torso mold. I absolutely cannot wait for this figure!

I always appreciate Bill's enthusiasm. Not a bad one in terms of the information.
They really need a different interviewer. Noelle is pretty bad. She doesn't even make eye contact with Bill and appears to be reading from a cue card. I miss the guy from a few years again. Tom maybe?

They made 2 Steamboats which are both great!
Does Mattel look at these threads? I hear they do but wonder if it helps them in anyway shape or form. Does anyone know?
Love the legends elite and hope they keep making them from 70's on ...
